Novels and Novellas

It was just about 4 when I pulled up in the driveway at the university where I had dropped off Holly a few hours earlier. There were a few more cars sitting at the curb, obviously other folks waiting to pick up someone from class. But the hair on the back of my neck was telling me not everything was as it appeared. I think you have heard me mention, when y...

Most of us are only three paychecks away from homelessness (finding the ideal location for a cardboard box will be covered in a future article). Because of this 'state of the union' being prepared to downsize from an SUV that burns premium unleaded gasol...

My thanks go out to my volunteer editor Wires for his assistance. His efforts have made this story a much better read. As always all errors remain mine. While they finished preparation for the upcoming winter Roger and his various teams of what passed for experts began working on technological improvements.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: Here's one for the non-wife-sharing crowd. Enjoy. I grabbed my suitcase off the carousel, shouldered my carryon and made my way outside to the passenger pickup area, thrilled at the unusually decent winter weather while grudgingly admitting that I was back in New York. It was one of those weird warm days, probably mid-fifties, even after...

Cliché - a phrase, opinion, or circumstance in this case that is overused and betrays a lack of original thought. There are probably a few of them in here but I wrote this not for the Cliques Against Numbing Clichés but because I wanted to play at something different even if it was a chestnut.
